International Conference on Surface Modification Technologies (SMT 24)
|
|
24th International Conference on Surface Modification Technologies in Dresden, Germany The surface modification of engineering materials allows for the manufacturing of high quality products with good corrosion and wear resistance often coupled with improved functional properties. Several surface tailoring methods have evolved in the last decade and many of these have significant industrial applications. The Surface Modification Technology (SMT) conferences have been conducted over the last two decades in numerous countries around the world so that scientists, engineers and manufacturers in different fields can come together to appraise the present state of the art, the furture that is evolving and the numerous applications for surface modification techniques.

Aim and Scope AIM
- To create an interactive forum for multi-disciplinary discussion and to encourage interactions between scientists/engineers and personnel from industrial, research and academic organizations.
- To identify new processes and frontier areas of research in traditional and advanced surface modification techniques and analysis
- The conference will speculate on future trends relating to surfaces modification and analysis.
SCOPE
Research papers and participation from industries are being solicited in the following areas that are not necessarily limited to:
- Thermal, Plasma and Cold Spray Technologies and Coatings.
- PVD, CVD, DLC, biomedical, polymer, high temperature coating.
